Today I spoke with Jason Perz. Jason came to futures trading after a career in BMX and we spoke about the ability to fall down and get back up again...traits greatly needed in both BMX and trading.  

I was particularly excited to speak with Jason after watching his TEDx talk titled The Thrill of Failure. It's a wonderfully encouraging presentation on survival and growth.  

We talked about his mentor and the group of traders he works with now. We also covered a bit of his thoughts on modeling for the markets and a few markets in particular like bitcoin, silver and crude.
